It’s as fun today as it was when i was playing it at the arcade when i was a teenager. Jeff Minter is a psychedelic-genius game developer! So excited for his next creation!

@40 – Rezolution77, I get the feeling that you are very young and trying to sound older or smarter by using big words, but everything you said is so out of context and off the wall that I just don’t believe you’re REALLY as dumb as you’re playing at. Are you? Don’t answer that! I just couldn’t resist commenting on this even though it’s a day old. Wow. Just……wow. Funny stuff.

I will continue the debate at hand, about the current point.
Instead of your hope of misleading the conversation, towards the direction you wanted.

It was simple enough in the comments above.

As for hiding behind business objectives, there are so many, that I also; would not know where to begin.

And as I do not have an available staff of intelligent resources to help me, I will have to stick to what I know.

That is, informing players and Sony alike, of the things we “actual players” want and would like to see.
This is simply not one of those things.

You can try to dress it up with as many votes, as you think helps.

But to talk down to a person, expressing his own opinion, about more than the game, is obviously one of those objectives.

I also believe that by giving companies the impression there is a real market for games like this, for anything more than a free application for my phone, would differ the real potential of much better games.

Anyway, sorry I could not elaborate more on the rest of your concerns, or be given more information to do more than talk about you, or myself.

Where to start? First off, everybody here understands that “trapped, forced, and fed” mean the same thing. That’s not the point. The point I believe erapago was trying to make was that these games really aren’t being forced on you. If you don’t want it, don’t buy it. There are plenty of other games out there. And you have to keep in mind that even though you don’t like a certain game or genre, there are probably plenty of other people out there that do. Likewise, the games that you want to play could be of no interest to other people.

Now, to actually address for your original post WHY so many new “retro” games are being announced instead of the classics that you want….the short answer is that Sony has no control over that. For the long answer, almost all of these new games are being made by developers outside of Sony, whereas straight ports of classics on PSN are worked on by developers within Sony. When a developer tries to make a game for Sony systems, Sony can’t just say “No, work on porting these classics for us instead.” Unless a game is being released directly by Sony, it isn’t competing in any way with resources being used to port classic games.
